alt-92 Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 That is some collection of Spanish Civil War aircraft... Those machine gun pits on the outboard wings must have been a bit awkward to sit in during patrols! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cariado Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant! They don't build them like they used to. That's a great model of a really nice plane. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toryu Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Fantastic model! I’m very attached to such strange flying machines, and water aircraft, and the thirties, and the Spanish Civil War period. Great collection.

They could crawl through the wing into the fuselage. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JWM Posted December 24, 2019 Author Share Posted December 24, 2019 Thank you very much for comments. Currently there is Dora Wings kit of early variant of SM-55, much more available then this Delta-2 short run (and much nicer to work with, I supouse). The SM 55A is announced also by Dora, and this variant was still in service in Romania during WWII - I am considering to do the second SM-55 with Romanian crosses this time... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
